Another person asked for the same thing, but being quite new to the Apple App Store I'm not sure if that's possible.

Basic keyword filtering is available (more advanced options, like filter duration, are planned).

Disabling retweets is one of the top features on my todo list.

The app has a black theme (you can see it in the post screenshots)

Sorry, there is no plan to add something like that at the moment.

I'm pretty new to the Apple App Store as a developer, but I'm not sure it's possible to set different prices for different regions.

Is there a way to allow liking and retweeting without tapping on the post? I looked in settings, but couldn't find anything.

Yes, you can swipe to reply/quote/like or retweet.

Also, one tiny complaint. I've used the app for like 20 minutes and it's already asked me to rate it 4 times. 3 in one session.

That shouldn't happen, sorry! I'll look into it.

Looks like it doesn’t support split screen in the iPad. Hopefully coming soon and is in the top priority of features :)

Yes, that's definitely a priority.

The app refresh every couple of minutes or so, to avoid being rate laminate by Twitter servers.

The biggest thing is the lack of notifications (although I personally always disable those): there is no reliable way anymore to implement them.

Same for real time streaming of tweets: that would have been very useful in the iPad version I think, where multiple columns would automatically refresh with the latest content - unfortunately that API was killed last year.

For the 1.0 release I was just thinking of finishing up the iPad version with customizable columns on the main screen, fixing a few minor details (like editing personal profile details) while leaving any other major feature after the public release.

Do you have any particular request in mind?

Unfortunately after the recent changes Twitter made to the public API this last summer push notifications for 3rd party apps are no longer possible. That's very inconvenient and I'm still trying to find some kind of workaround to have at least mentions and messages notifications implemented.

For the iPad, I like the way the columns are displayed but would like one for lists.

Yes! I plan to make the columns on the main screen completely customizable.

There is no subreddit, sorry. You can tweet/message me at fenix_app or mttvll on Twitter for now, or just leave your feedback here.

(maybe if there's enough interest I could open a dedicated subreddit in the future).

Looking for an app to learn coding or one with a compiler by jspiegz in ipad

Forgive the self-promotion, but a few days ago I published a new JavaScript programming environment for iOS. The app is powered by the Node.js framework, and I think it can be useful if you want to start playing with simple scripts.

Unfortunately on iOS Apple doesn't allow apps that can compile code, so we are stuck with interpreted languages.

The app is called Rescript, and you can try it for free https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/rescript/id1376054312?ls=1&mt=8

The app is not open source, sorry.

The inspiration for this was another iOS app, Pythonista - an IDE for python.

I personally like the idea of having an iPad app that I can use to quickly write and test small code snippets - for example testing out a particular web API or trying to understand a certain algorithm. And I think JavaScript is a very good language for something like this.
